The word green is closely related to the old English verb growan, “to grow” which fittingly captures the Big Egg’s charity’s theme of betterment both individually and collectively. The Big Egg Hunt is a hanging egg inspired by a particular shade of green associated with cars and English dandyism. The ovoid sphere and wrapped tessellated pattern give a feeling of weight creating a sense of movement, of pictorial versus physical space and of turning something ‘inside out’.
